Associated PressKnicks team president Donnie Walsh has until the Feb. 24 trade deadline if he is to add Carmelo Anthony to his roster this season.

The Knicks would be preparing to introduce Carmelo Anthony to the media today had New York consented to meet Denver's trade demands, which include Danilo Gallinari and Raymond Felton, according to a published report.

One team official classified the package of Gallinari, Felton, a third starter, Eddy Curry's expiring contract and at least one first-round draft pick as "steep," the New York Daily News is reporting.

The Knicks would get the 26-year-old All-Star forward and point guard Chauncey Billips.

"There's a deal to be made," a team source close to the negotiations told the News.

New York team president Donnie Walsh and coach Mike D'Antoni feel the team would be giving up too much under the proposed swap.

The teams have until the Feb. 24 trading deadline to pull off a deal.

Anthony, a free agent at the end of the season, has made it known New York is his preferred landing spot.
